Intro - Cadd9 - G - D - Cadd9 - G - D
(verse 1)
Cadd9 G D
I've treated this ol body like a stolen car,
Cadd9 G D
Just some old disposable machine,
Cadd9 G D
Pedal to the metal and a trail of broken hearts,
Cadd9 G D
Yea I'd fill it up with almost anything,
F G D
My motto was live fast and go out strong,
Cadd9 G D
But I never thought that I'd live this long,
(verse 2)
Cadd9 G D
Once I had a woman and she treated me real good,
Cadd9 G D
The kinda love I never will replace,
Cadd9 G D
One day I thought I ain't seen the world the way I should,
Cadd9 G D
So one night I got up and steped away,
F G D
I knew there'd be some lonely's commin on,
Cadd9 G D
But I never thought that I'd live this long,
(chorus)
D Cadd9 G/B
There have been many times I really should have died,
D Cadd9 Cadd9-G/B-Cadd9-G/B-Cadd9-D
But somehow I survived on my mistakes,
D Cadd9 G/B
They say it makes me stronger, but why does it take longer,
Bb Bb-C-D
Gettin up these days,
(lead - D - Cadd9 - G/B-G6/A - D - Cadd9 - G/B-G6/A - D)
(verse 3)
Cadd9 G D
Yea I'm old enough to have a few regrets,
Cadd9 G D
I'm still young enough to have my dreams,
Cadd9 G D
Maybe that's the reason that my life ain't over yet,
Cadd9 G D
All the places and faces I ain't seen,
F G D
I probably won't have time to see them all,
Dm Cadd9 D
But then again I never thought I'd live this long,
Outro - D - Cadd9 - G/B-G6/A - D
